Pete cut a square window in the wall of his workshop. The window side length measures 18 inches. What is the area of the wall, excluding the window?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Area of the wall excluding window  = Area of the complete wall  - (324 sq inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

The each side length of window  =  18 inches.

Also, given that the window is in the shape of a square,

so all sides of the windows  = 18 inches.

AREA OF A SQUARE =   SIDE X SIDE

⇒ Here,the area of the window  = 18 inches x 18 inches

                                                     =  324 sq. inches

Hence, the area of the cut out window = 324 sq. inches.

So, the area of the wall excluding window  = Area of the wall - Area of the cutout window

or, Area of the wall excluding window  = Area of the complete wall  - (324 sq inches)
